Chapter 196: Meeting Old Hu Again, Tears Streaming Down My Face!
After Werner got the surveillance video, the program inspectors from other countries also arrived one after another.
But they were a step too late.
Not only were they late, but they also had to endure Young Master Xiao Man talking nonstop for a long time. When they left, it was as if their brains had been electrified, with one sentence repeatedly echoing in their minds.
“My master is amazing. What does it feel like to not be able to catch him? My master even went to your observation room, and you still couldn’t catch him. Hahahaha!”
Especially that last mocking laughter, it was so incredibly infectious that it filled everyone’s minds.
First, there was the impact of the explosion, and then Xiao Man’s verbal attack afterward. The combination of these two nearly drove some program inspectors to the brink of collapse.
Werner watched the video in front of him, and sure enough, at the time of the explosion, a figure left Xiao Man’s house. He had jumped directly from the third floor.
He had to admit, this height and courage would be unachievable for the average person.
But Wang Yun moved like Peter Pan, incredibly light and agile. With a few pieces of clothing draped over his shoulders as a buffer, he leaped out from the window.
After landing safely, he walked towards the back. The back door could be opened from the inside. Once Wang Yun opened the back door, he immediately disappeared into the night.“This villa has only two exits. One leads towards the suburbs of Xiyun City, and the other heads into the city. Split into two groups. Once you find Wang Yun, don’t make any noise. You won’t be able to catch him alone, so you must call for backup immediately,” Werner instructed his men.
He was different from the other captains. The other captains were full of arrogance, believing their teams could easily capture Wang Yun. But they underestimated Wang Yun’s abilities and overestimated their own.
That’s why they kept failing.
Werner was different. He knew his own capabilities clearly.
If fewer than fifty people attacked Wang Yun simultaneously, it would be impossible to catch him. And the attack had to be from all angles, without any blind spots. If there was even a small opening, Wang Yun would take advantage of it.
Werner sent all his men out, focusing on capturing Wang Yun.
Meanwhile, Wang Yun was running at full speed through the night.
The system had previously raised his physical strength and endurance to the limit. At full strength, he could reach a speed of twenty kilometers an hour, comparable to an electric scooter.
Wang Yun knew people would definitely come after him, so he had no other thoughts except to find a place without surveillance to hide.
He wasn’t familiar with Xiyun City, but he knew some general locations. He had also seen the map of Xiyun City in Liang Long’s simulated villa before.
“Bath centers, Internet cafes, and black hotels that don’t require ID cards are all being watched. Even if I find a place to stay, it’ll raise suspicion. The only places left now are some dilapidated, uninhabited old houses and bridge underpasses,” Wang Yun muttered to himself analytically while running.
He had completely infuriated the program inspection teams. All the safe places where he could have stayed were now compromised.
Xiyun City was still quite large, but the number of program inspectors was too many to avoid. However, Wang Yun didn’t want to end up in those places.
It was already early in the morning, and despite his efforts, there were no feasible options left.
In desperation, Wang Yun ran towards a sparsely populated area.
In the far west of Xiyun City, there was a massive construction site. The area of this real estate development was very large, requiring thousands of workers every day. The project had gained significant attention throughout Xiyun City, and Wang Yun’s goal was to head to this construction site.
First, the large area and ongoing construction meant everything was chaotic. Even if he was discovered, he would still have a chance to escape.
Second, with so many workers, he could blend in easily without causing a commotion or being noticed. The larger and more crowded the construction site, the safer Wang Yun felt.
With this in mind, Wang Yun deliberately blackened his face and headed to the entrance of the construction site. He picked up two steel bars from the side and grabbed a helmet from the ground, putting it on as he walked inside.
“It’s late, stop working already. How can we rest if you keep at it?”
“Who is this? Which village are you from? So stupid. Stop working!”
“It’s already twelve o’clock, your health is more important than your life.”
“Don’t worry about him. He thinks the more he works, the more he earns. It’s paid by the day, boy.”
As Wang Yun walked into the construction site carrying steel bars, the workers sitting at the door of the temporary building saw him and shouted in dissatisfaction.
If someone was still working at this hour, the contractor would surely praise them. However, this would also make others look bad. Whoever stood out would be condemned.
Soon, all kinds of insulting voices were directed at Wang Yun. Some people even came up to him, shouting for him to cool off and rest somewhere else.
Wang Yun just smiled and quickly put down the steel bars in his hands.
At that moment, someone walked up to him with a cigarette in his mouth.
“You’re so diligent. What village are you from?”
Wang Yun looked up and couldn’t help but smile.
It was Brother Hu.
Everyone in the livestream also noticed as Wang Yun looked up and saw that familiar face.
This face, compared to before, looked weathered. He was unshaven, and his whole demeanor had changed. He truly looked like a migrant worker.
If Wang Yun and everyone in the livestream hadn’t remembered him so well, it would have been hard to recognize him at a glance.
“I’m from Hu Hanqing Village,” Wang Yun said with a smile.
He was still wearing a mask full of acne marks.
When Brother Hu heard this, he thought it was nonsense.
Since when did his name become the name of a village?
“Hey, what are you talking about? Where are you really from… You, you’re Big Brother?”
Brother Hu stopped mid-sentence, noticing the familiar glint in Wang Yun’s eyes. Instantly, his scalp tingled with recognition.
Wang Yun nodded.
“I didn’t expect you, Brother Hu, to suddenly become the foreman of the largest construction site. You’re doing well,” Wang Yun said with a smile.
Their voices were low enough that the people around them couldn’t hear a thing.
“Big Brother, it’s really you! Where have you been these days? It’s so good to see you’re okay!”
Brother Hu’s eyes immediately turned red, and tears welled up in his eyes. As a dignified man, he burst into tears. His body was trembling as he stepped forward. He originally wanted to hug Wang Yun but feared that it would arouse suspicion among the people around them.
He could only give Wang Yun a hearty slap on the shoulder.
He was really excited. After almost a week, he finally met his backbone.
